After the afternoon break, the judge announced that Casey Anthony was ill and ended court for the day. This was after graphic pictures of Caylee's remains were shown all morning long.
Casey watched as different crime scene photos were shown. When the photos of Caylee's skull were shown, Casey Anthony put her head down and looked visibly upset. As the pictures continued with scenes of the duct tape that was wrapped on the mouth and nose area of the skull, Casey continued to not look at the photos, occasionally dabbing at her eyes.
(Cindy and George Anthony were not in the courtroom for this testimony when it was announced that the crime scene photos would be discussed.)
How does this play to the jury? Will the jurors feel sympathy for poor Casey the mother who was forced to sit and listen to the description of her daughter's remains while graphic photos were shown? Or will jurors feel that Casey's "illness" was due to her own guilt slapping her in her face over what she did to poor little Caylee?
The testimony (photos were not shown on television) was graphic. The discussion of how plants were growing into the remains, the clothing Caylee wore which had been disintegrated due to the elements, the description of the duct tape found covering what was Caylee's face and the other items found at the scene painted a picture of how this child was disposed of like trash.
Since we have already seen and heard Casey's lack of emotion, was her sudden illness just a ploy to win sympathy from the jury or was it because she may feel real guilt over what she did? What do you think?
